“I don’t care what the Supreme Court does, this is now inevitable,” Limbaugh said on his radio show Thursday, “and it’s inevitable because we lost the language on this.”

Limbaugh argued that by distinguishing marriage as “traditional” or “opposite sex” marriage, proponents of same-sex marriage were able to claim they were being denied a right.

“I maintain to you that we lost the issue when we started allowing the word ‘marriage’ to be bastardized and redefined by simply adding words to it, because marriage is one thing, and it was not established on the basis of discrimination,” Limbaugh said on his show. “It wasn’t established on the basis of denying people anything.”
